Do you want to replace your heating system with a system that consumes less energy? You can benefit from a financial assistance called “Heating Boost”. We tell you what are the conditions and the procedure to follow to benefit from it.

The Coup de pouce Chauffage premium is an aid to finance the replacement of a boiler at the coal or oil or gas by one of the following facilities:

The Coup de pouce Chauffage premium also provides funding for the replacement of independent heating equipment at the coal by one independent wood-burning heater.

The bonus is for owners and tenants.

If you are a tenant, your landlord must authorize the work you want to do. However, you do not have to provide a document justifying this agreement in order to benefit from the premium.

Your home must have been built since more than 2 years.

All households may benefit from the premium.

However, the amount of the premium differs according to the nature of work to be undertaken and according to the level of your resources.

Households with the lowest incomes receive a higher premium.

The income withheld is the reference tax revenue (RFR) of year N-2 (i.e. 2024 for applications made in 2026).

The criteria depend on the following information:

  • Volume of EWC depending on the equipment to be replaced. The volume of EWC is officially recognized amount of energy savings for an operation (e.g. installation of a biomass boiler, connection to the district heating network, etc.). This volume is expressed in kWh cumac by geographical area (e.g. 41 300 kWh cumac).
  • Coefficient of improvement depending on the equipment to be replaced (e.g. ×5 for a household with very modest incomes)
  • EWC Award on the market (variable over time).

Since 1er October 2025, the amount of the premium is no longer fixed.

To know the exact amount of your premium, you can contact an energy supplier, as they are the ones who set the amount according to the market.

A France Rénov' advisor can also guide you and check your eligibility:
